Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find how much a token costs.
4.40 ÷ 8 = .55
Then divide 6.05 by .55 to get 11.
The rate Ritz can eat apples is 8/15 apples per minute.
Set the rate (which is measured apples / minutes) equal to 16 apples / t minutes.
(8/15) = (16/t)
Cross multiply.
16*15 = 8t
t = 20
The answer is 30 minutes. You could solve the problem with basic reasoning as well. 16 is twice the number of apples as 8, so the time it takes to eat them will be double 15 minutes.
Its either 3 or 2
the third way matches only if there's another reference line
I'll go with 3
Given:
Kelly purchased 5 containers of ice cream for a party.
Each container holds 8 cups of ice cream.
Her brother ate 2 cups of ice cream.
One serving of ice cream = 2/3 of a cup.
To find:
Number of servings of ice cream will be left for the party?
Solution:
We have,
1 container = 8 cups of ice cream
5 containers = 5×8 = 40 cups of ice cream
Her brother ate 2 cups of ice cream. So, remaining cups of ice cream is
cups
Now,
of a cup = 1 serving
1 cup =
serving
38 cup =
serving
=
serving
= 57 serving
Therefore, 57 servings of ice cream will be left for the party.
This problem can be represented through the following equation
A = A₀(1/2)^t/h
where
A-----------> is the amount of substance left after time t
A₀ ----------> is the original amount---------> 2 g
h-------------> is the half-life-----------> 8 days
for A=0.04 g
t=?
0.04 = 2(1/2)^t/8
0.02 = (1/2)^t/8
Take ln on both sides:
ln(0.02) = ln [(1/2)^t/8]
ln(0.02) = (t/8)(ln 1/2)
t = 8*ln(0.02)/ln(1/2)
t = 45.15 days
the answer is 45.15 days
